The Government of Quebec agrees that products containing 2,4-D do not pose an unacceptable risk to human health or theenvironment, provided that the instructions on their label are followed, as concluded by HealthCanada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency ("PMRA") in its May 16,2008, decision on the re-evaluation of 2,4-D;

Are my pets safe if they walk on a lawn that has been treated with pesticides?

Potential exposure may occur if pets are allowed on the treated lawn before the pesticide residue has been allowed to dry. They may be exposed through contact with their paws, licking of their bodies, or through eating grass. In order to minimize exposure, after treating your lawn, it is important to follow the label instructions as well as the instructions given to you by your lawn care professional, and restrict pets from the treated lawn until it has dried. No harm is expected, but avoiding exposures whenever possible is recommended.

Is it safe to use the herbicide 2,4-D on my lawn?

Following extensive consultation and scientific review using the most current scientific methods, Health Canada has determined that 2,4-D meets Canada's strict health and safety standards, and as such can be used safely when label directions are followed. Health Canada's review concurs with the findings of regulators in other OECD countries, including the United States, European Union, New Zealand and the World Health Organization.

In the 9|11 era of anti-pesticide lunatic-terrorism, Hudson was/is infested with anti-pesticide lunatic-liars. They stated lies like they are truth, and in a way that made people listen to them. Jack Layton, June Irwin, and others. These anti-pesticide activists were lunatic-liars ! They were truth-challenged. They lied and lied and lied and lied. They never stopped ! The Hudson lunatic-liars conspired against pest control products. These lunatic-liars wanted to annihilate the professional lawn care industry. Their lies subsequently created a trail of economic destruction with thousands of people out of work. http://wp.me/P1jq40-43B Their lies were intended to discredit Health Canada and to prohibit products that had been scientifically-approved by the highest quality experts. Health Canada, and not anti-pesticide lunatics, has the essential expertise and credibility on pest control products. The Hudson anti-pesticide lunatics were not credible and knew nothing about pest control products. None had any competent expertise, recognized training, or successful background in matters concerning pest control products. They were the least qualified to provide any advice about pest control products. For more information about lunatic-liars, go to the following web-page … http://wp.me/P1jq40-5fk WILLIAM H.
